How Man United Would Line Up Next Season With Their Transfer Targets To Conquer Europe
According to a rumor published online by Italian writer Fabrizio Romano, Manchester United and defender Tyrell Malacia of Feyenoord have achieved a complete agreement for the latter to join the team this summer as they prepare to reassemble the squad for the upcoming campaign. Because of that, I made the decision to post this article to show how Erik Ten Hag's Red Devils would line up to rule Europe next season if they were successful in signing all of their transfer targets.A. Goalkeeper - With Dean Henderson leaving this summer, David De Gea will be the sole goalkeeper for the remainder of the season.
B. Defenders: If Manchester United is successful in concluding Lisandro Martinez's deal this summer, they will team him up at center defense with Raphael Varane for the upcoming campaign. Malacia, on the other hand, would take the place of Alex Telles and Luke Shaw at left back.
C. Midfielders: Frenkie De Jong would take Paul Pogba's place in the team's starting XI for the upcoming campaign. In the attacking midfield position, Van De Beek and Bruno Fernandes will work together after Van De Beek spent the previous season on loan at Everton.
D. Attackers: If United can sign Antony this summer, Jadon Sancho, Cristiano Ronaldo, and Antony will be Erik Ten Hag's attacking frontline leaders for the upcoming season. For further information, see the image below.

Inside agent? How Thiago Alcantara helped Sadio Mane transfer from Liverpool to Bayern Munich
The Sadio Mane transfer ought to serve as a case study for the football phrase "domino effect." The Senegal striker claimed in an interview with Sport Bild (via Sport1) that Thiago Alcantara, a former player for Bayern Munich, had a significant influence on his choice to leave Liverpool FC.
Mane stated, "When I made my choice, I spoke to Thiago. He praised Bayern as a fantastic team, the friendliness of the locals, and the beauty of Munich. That immediately made me feel terrific.
Thiago's contribution to the deal went beyond just a brief talk. With only one year left on his contract, the Spaniard planned to leave Bayern Munich for Liverpool back in the summer of 2020. Thiago kept a quiet profile while the two parties reached an amicable deal instead of openly stating his intention to depart and applying pressure to the club. Liverpool acquired the Spaniard for a cheap price and with little fuss, and they eventually paid Mane back for it.Funny enough, a former Liverpool player was the one who initially persuaded Thiago to transfer from Bayern to Liverpool. Apparently, Philippe Coutinho, who was out on loan from Barcelona that year, persuaded Thiago to switch teams. Only because his transfer to Barcelona had fallen through and he required a loan to advance his career was Coutinho himself at Bayern. Although he didn't get the boost he was hoping for, he did come away from the agreement with a treble, which included a brand-new Champions League trophy.In the end, it appears that (nearly) everyone engaged in the Coutinho move benefited in some way. Liverpool won the Champions League by using the funds they received to buy Virgil van Dijk and Allisson. Bayern used Coutinho as leverage to eventually purchase Sadio Mane from Liverpool for little money and earned a treble out of him. And Coutinho himself achieved his goal of winning the CL championship while earning a large salary in the process.
Barcelona is the sole loser in this situation because it spent all the money but received nothing in return. Not happy, is it?
